What is being bought

Published requirement description

Enabling Environment principles are a core part of Approved Premises practice. They have been in place since 2014, and have become the cornerstone of performance measurement and governance. This need has also been captured in the IAP contracts. As such they both inform front line delivery and provide an internal performance benchmark.
